1. How Fertilizer Dealers Use Research InformationThere i s not a great deal o f resource information t o draw from i n reference t o the t i t l e so most o f my comments are based on observations made and personal opinions formed during some 26 years of experience in the fertilizer industry, covering a majority of the principal agricultural states. Fertilizer dealers as a whole tend t o translate research information into dollars. They use it as a business tool. It provides support t o the sale of existing products and services and identifies... |
2. Nitrogen Recalibration for Wheat in North DakotaThe general formula for determining N fertilizer ra te in North Dakota for about thirty-five years has been N-rate = (2.5 X Yield Potential (or Yield G oal) less credits from previous crops and soil test nitrate-N from a 2-foot soil core composite. Historically high fertilizer N costs and the ability to fertilize within fiel ds rather than whole field N management has resulted in a reexamination of N calibration data, and an effort to expand the modern N calibration database with new field experiments.... |
3. Nitrogen Recalibration for Spring Wheat and Durum in North DakotaNorth Dakota will begin using new fertilizer r ecommendations beginning Dec. 1, 2009. Previous recommendations required a yield guess by growers with no rega rd to economics of nitrogen application. The new recommendations recogni ze different N response curves with yield and grain protein within three state agri-climatology zones. The reco mmendations use the "return to N" method, which vary the N recommendation based on crop price and N costs. The resulting rate is adjusted based on... D. Franzen, G. Endres, J. Lukach, R.
